Digitalisation reshapes various industries. It transforms the working environment, job design and creates new work characteristics, providing implications for employee productivity and performance. However, the process of adopting digitalisation comes with unique challenges, including a resistant organisational culture and lack of interdepartmental collaboration and communication. Therefore, we are investigating the impact of digital employee management interfaces on employees' wellbeing and performances through a systematic literature review and interviews.

Biography
My research interests lie within employment and opportunity perceptions of hospitality and tourism workers in low paid jobs with a particular focus on gender and ethnicity influences. I am also increasingly drawn towards innovation in learning content and pedagogy that would address the career ambitions and life aspirations of students besides fulfilling the requirements of the radically transforming hospitality industry..
My work has been published in various journals and as book chapters including Economic and Industrial Democracy, Journal of Services Research, Journal of Managerial Psychology, Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Management and Service Industries Journal. I am also a reviewer for various management, tourism and hospitality journals. I have received research funding for various projects to facilitate my research in hospitality and tourism education and successfully supervised PhD students in hospitality and tourism research.
